Why we eat elephants?

Problems children and young people (and adults) face often seem big like elephants.If you were faced with the challenge of how to eat an elephant (or a largepumpkin if you are vegetarian!), how would you do it?

One chunk at a time of course. Problems can be tackled exactly like that -by breaking them down into chunks.

“We eat Elephants” badges, Colouringsheets and Feelings cards are just some of the fun resources in the LivingLife to the Full (LLTTF) We Eat Elephants course.
